Pros

* Ability to put your own imprint on the success of the company through creating the how and why we do the things we do from a clean sheet. * Work with highly motivated and passionate co-workers. All invested in the success of the company and putting in the necessary work to achieve success * Working with a very exciting brand, challenging previous manufacturing beliefs and material standards to change the way vehicles come together. * Working with a product and brand created to get people out into exciting places and making the world a better place

Cons

* Still scaling staff and resources to support all the activities needed. Stretched thin with aggressive deadlines and ambiguous goals- With that being said- very rewarding and a great sense of accomplishment when deadlines are met and goals are accomplished

Pros

- Great exposure to the product - Amazing teammates, boots on the ground collaboration - Onboarding is really well done - they take this part seriously and I appreciate that.

Cons

- Limited growth - Constantly worried whether your department is getting laid off. - I've worked at plenty of other startups and EV companies and this one is by far the worst. - Zero job security unless you're JR
